A geocache may have attached a number of attributes, giving more information about the cache, the hiding, the recommendations, requirements, permissions, hazards, other helpful information related with the search.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - adding new attributes for OCPL 2026-08-23.'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''
*all OC existing and future attributes that are PL branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 200 - 299;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC future attributes that are DE branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 300 - 399;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC special purpose attributes to have numeric IDs in the range 900 - 999;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC that have the meaning of a negated OC attribute to use the same numeric ID on the least significant 2 digits, the third digit may be the branch designator (according to applicability) and the fourth (most significant digit) be 9; ''(hypothetical generic example: "available during high tide" ID 241 - PL branch (UK), "NOT available during high tide" ID 9241 - PL branch)''
*all attributes have assigned a unique [[ACODE]] (according to [[OKAPI]]).
*all "'''OC only'''" attributes have assigned a unique [[OCGS]] number according to the first ID column. (for GPX export purposes by OKAPI and OCDE).

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

*''Attributes according to Geocaching.com: https://www.geocaching.com/about/icons.aspx''
*''gcTour GreaseMonkey script: https://gist.github.com/DieBatzen/5814dc7368c1034470c8/''

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

A geocache may have attached a number of attributes, giving more information about the cache, the hiding, the recommendations, requirements, permissions, hazards, other helpful information related with the search.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - adding new attributes for OCPL 2026-08-23.'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''
*all OC existing and future attributes that are PL branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 200 - 299;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC future attributes that are DE branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 300 - 399;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC special purpose attributes to have numeric IDs in the range 900 - 999;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC that have the meaning of a negated OC attribute to use the same numeric ID on the least significant 2 digits, the third digit may be the branch designator (according to applicability) and the fourth (most significant digit) be 9; ''(hypothetical generic example: "available during high tide" ID 241 - PL branch (UK), "NOT available during high tide" ID 9241 - PL branch)''
*all attributes have assigned a unique [[ACODE]] (according to [[OKAPI]]).
*all "'''OC only'''" attributes have assigned a unique [[OCGS]] number according to the first ID column. (for GPX export purposes by OKAPI and OCDE).

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

*''Attributes according to Geocaching.com: https://www.geocaching.com/about/icons.aspx''
*''gcTour GreaseMonkey script: https://gist.github.com/DieBatzen/5814dc7368c1034470c8/''
*''also based on: https://forums.geocaching.com/GC/index.php?/topic/282652-groundspeak-gpx/&tab=comments#comment-4855718''

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

A geocache may have attached a number of attributes, giving more information about the cache, the hiding, the recommendations, requirements, permissions, hazards, other helpful information related with the search.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - adding new attributes for OCPL 2026-08-23.'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''
*all OC existing and future attributes that are PL branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 200 - 299;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC future attributes that are DE branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 300 - 399;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC special purpose attributes to have numeric IDs in the range 900 - 999;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC that have the meaning of a negated OC attribute to use the same numeric ID on the least significant 2 digits, the third digit may be the branch designator (according to applicability) and the fourth (most significant digit) be 9; ''(hypothetical generic example: "available during high tide" ID 241 - PL branch (UK), "NOT available during high tide" ID 9241 - PL branch)''
*all attributes have assigned a unique [[ACODE]] (according to [[OKAPI]]).
*all "'''OC only'''" attributes have assigned a unique [[OCGS]] number according to the first ID column. (for GPX export purposes by OKAPI and OCDE).

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

*''Attributes according to Geocaching.com: https://www.geocaching.com/about/icons.aspx''
*''gcTour GreaseMonkey script: https://gist.github.com/DieBatzen/5814dc7368c1034470c8/''

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

A geocache may have attached a number of attributes, giving more information about the cache, the hiding, the recommendations, requirements, permissions, hazards, other helpful information related with the search.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - adding new attributes for OCPL 2026-08-23.'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''
*all OC existing and future attributes that are PL branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 200 - 299;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC future attributes that are DE branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 300 - 399;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC special purpose attributes to have numeric IDs in the range 900 - 999;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC that have the meaning of a negated OC attribute to use the same numeric ID on the least significant 2 digits, the third digit may be the branch designator (according to applicability) and the fourth (most significant digit) be 9; ''(hypothetical generic example: "available during high tide" ID 241 - PL branch (UK), "NOT available during high tide" ID 9241 - PL branch)''
*all attributes have assigned a unique [[ACODE]] (according to [[OKAPI]]).
*all "'''OC only'''" attributes have assigned a unique [[OCGS]] number according to the first ID column. (for GPX export purposes by OKAPI and OCDE).

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

*''Attributes according to Geocaching.com: https://www.geocaching.com/about/icons.aspx''
*''gcTour GreaseMonkey script: https://gist.github.com/DieBatzen/5814dc7368c1034470c8/''
*''also based on: https://forums.geocaching.com/GC/index.php?/topic/282652-groundspeak-gpx/&tab=comments#comment-4855718''

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

A geocache may have attached a number of attributes, giving more information about the cache, the hiding, the recommendations, requirements, permissions, hazards, other helpful information related with the search.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - adding new attributes for OCPL 2026-08-23.'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''
*all OC existing and future attributes that are PL branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 200 - 299;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC future attributes that are DE branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 300 - 399;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC special purpose attributes to have numeric IDs in the range 900 - 999;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC that have the meaning of a negated OC attribute to use the same numeric ID on the least significant 2 digits, the third digit may be the branch designator (according to applicability) and the fourth (most significant digit) be 9; ''(hypothetical generic example: "available during high tide" ID 241 - PL branch (UK), "NOT available during high tide" ID 9241 - PL branch)''
*all attributes have assigned a unique [[ACODE]] (according to [[OKAPI]]).
*all "'''OC only'''" attributes have assigned a unique [[OCGS]] number according to the first ID column. (for GPX export purposes by OKAPI and OCDE).

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

A geocache may have attached a number of attributes, giving more information about the cache, the hiding, the recommendations, requirements, permissions, hazards, other helpful information related with the search.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - adding new attributes for OCPL 2026-08-23.'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''
*all OC existing and future attributes that are PL branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 200 - 299;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC future attributes that are DE branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 300 - 399;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC special purpose attributes to have numeric IDs in the range 900 - 999;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC that have the meaning of a negated OC attribute to use the same numeric ID on the least significant 2 digits, the third digit may be the branch designator (according to applicability) and the fourth (most significant digit) be 9; ''(hypothetical generic example: "available during high tide" ID 241 - PL branch (UK), "NOT available during high tide" ID 9241 - PL branch)''
*all attributes have assigned a unique [[ACODE]] (according to [[OKAPI]]).
*all "'''OC only'''" attributes have assigned a unique [[OCGS]] number according to the first ID column. (for GPX export purposes by OKAPI and OCDE).

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

A geocache may have attached a number of attributes, giving more information about the cache, the hiding, the recommendations, requirements, permissions, hazards, other helpful information related with the search.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - adding new attributes for OCPL 2026-08-23.'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''
*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a negated GC attribute to use the same numeric ID added to 9000. ''(for example: "available 24/7" is ID 13. "NOT available 24/7" to be ID 9013.);''
**DE branch negated attributes use a separate flag and retain the ID without adding 9000.
*OC attirbutes that have equivalent meaning on both PL and DE branches and existing DE branch only attributes to retain their IDs in the range 100 - 199;''<ref name=":2" group="OC">This assumes that future GC attributes will have their IDs below 100.</ref>''
*all OC existing and future attributes that are PL branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 200 - 299;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC future attributes that are DE branch specific to have numeric IDs in the range 300 - 399;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC special purpose attributes to have numeric IDs in the range 900 - 999;''<ref name=":2" group="OC" />''
*all OC that have the meaning of a negated OC attribute to use the same numeric ID on the least significant 2 digits, the third digit may be the branch designator (according to applicability) and the fourth (most significant digit) be 9; ''(hypothetical generic example: "available during high tide" ID 241 - PL branch (UK), "NOT available during high tide" ID 9241 - PL branch)''
*all attributes have assigned a unique [[ACODE]] (according to [[OKAPI]]).
*all "'''OC only'''" attributes have assigned a unique [[OCGS]] number according to the first ID column. (for GPX export purposes by OKAPI and OCDE).

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching ONLY attributes that do not have a Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique, follow the first ID column in the table above and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as negated or unset;

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

''This document describes the existing cache attributes across Opencaching sites.''

''' <big>IMPORTANT!!! Delpoyed on [[OKAPI]] and all [[Opencaching-PL|opencaching-pl]] based sites as of 2019-12-18.</big>'''

'''WORK IN PROGRESS - updating with some changes and new attrib!'''

==Attribute numbering rules==

*all OC that have equivalent meaning to a GC attribute to use the same numeric ID; ''(while the meaning is equivalent, the exact wording of it's name need not be the same. examples are "bring your children / suitable for children / kids friendly / etc");''

==Attributes matrix==

===OC attributes mapping===
Every OC installation has its own set of internal attributes.

''Some attributes are common between OC sites; some attributes are common with GC; some attributes are OC only; some attributes are specific to only some OC sites but not all.''

[[OKAPI]] provides a unified interface for information exchange with third party apps (eg. c:geo) using GC compatibility and OC extensions (GPX export function).

====Opencaching-PL implementation specific====
All attributes are implemented as either ON or OFF; Inverse meaning is handled by a different attribute.

At this time attributes are defined in database (table <code>cache_attrib</code>). Each site has it's own attribute set, hence it's own contents for this table.

'''''Each site must ensure the contents of this table follows the above numbering scheme.'''''

====Opencaching-DE implementation specific====
Attributes are implemented with a unique internal ID, a separate public ID (same as GC ID where applicable; same as [[OCGS]] where applicable) and uses a flag to indicate normal (<code>inc=1</code>) / inverse (<code>inc=0</code>) meaning.

====OKAPI implementation specific ====
OKAPI uses an internal mapping file [https://github.com/opencaching/okapi/blob/master/okapi/services/attrs/attribute-definitions.xml attribute-definitions.xml].

[[OKAPI]] defines an internal [[ACODE]] to individually map attributes from each site and also to handle OC to GC equivalence.

[[OKAPI]] defines an additional pseudo-Groundspeak ID ("[[OCGS]]" IDs) for Opencaching attributes which have no Groundspeak equivalent, used to store such attributes in GPX <code><groundspeak:attribute></code> elements. "[[OCGS]]" IDs are unique and do not overlap with Groundspeak attribute IDs.

===GC reference ===
Reference documented for establishing equivalences necessary for compatibility with third party apps using GPX file.

*Attribute has only '''YES''' = attribute that can be set or unset;
*Attribute has both '''YES''' and '''NO''' = attribute that can be set normally, set as it's inverse meaning or unset;

==Developers and site operators==
All changes to attributes must follow the rules stated on this page.

Any attribute change must be implemented with the following considerations in mind:

*documentation here;
*implementation in the respective Opencaching branch(es), including GPX export module;
*implementation in [[OKAPI]];
*notifying [[Third party apps|third party app]] developers of the change.

===Creating a new attribute===

#Creating a new attribute must start with submitting an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es), as a request for a new attribute.
#All new attributes must follow the [[Cache attributes#Attribute numbering rules|Attribute numbering rules]] above.
#All new attributes must be properly documented here before implementation. That means inclusion in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] as well as their own descriptive page that will include a deplopyment date.
#Developers will then implement the new attribute according to the Opencaching branch(es) involved and [[OKAPI]] <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Adding an existing attribute===
A certain Opencaching site may not have an existing attribute from the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]].

#Document the addition on the attribute's page.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>.
#Deploy the attribute on the site in question according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#[[Third party apps|Third party app]] developers to be informed of the change.

===Changing an attribute===
'''Changing an existing attribute's ID must be well justified and follow a procedure similar to that of first removing an attribute then adding a new one.'''

'''Changing an existing attribute's meaning or purpose is not permitted.'''

The only change allowed is updating the attribute's descriptive text (including translations) to better convey it's meaning/purpose for reasons such as bad translation or poor word choice.

===Removing an attribute===
'''An attribute may be removed (from use), but not completely deleted, as it will be retained for backwards compatibility. Exception: when changing the attribute ID according to the above procedure.'''

A removed attribute will be documented as strike-through text in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and it's own page.

An attribute may be removed from one site, all sites of a branch or all branches.

#Document the removal of the attribute in the [[Cache attributes#Attributes matrix|Attributes matrix]] and attribute page including planned removal date.
#Update OKAPI <code>attribute-definitions.xml</code>. by removing the relevant site(s). Note: OKAPI forbids the deletion of [[ACODE|ACODES]] even if not mapped to any site, for backwards compatibility reasons.
#Remove the attribute usage from the site(s) database according to the procedures for the Opencaching branch software used.
#Create an issue on the development page of the respective Opencaching branch(es) to remove the attribute if applicable.
#Developers will then implement the change.

The [https://github.com/OpencachingDeutschland/oc-server3 OpencachingDeutschland project] contains the website's code, including all third-party libraries needed to run it. It is one of two major Opencaching code forks; the other one being [https://github.com/opencaching/opencaching-pl/ Opencaching-PL]. Feel free to use it under the provided license terms for setting up your own open and free Geocaching listing service! The code can easily be translated to other languages.

The project and website are governed by [https://www.opencaching.de/articles.php?page=verein Opencaching Deutschland e.V.] - a registered association according to German law, created to support and ensure future development of OC.

==== Opencaching.DE code branch - https://github.com/OpencachingDeutschland/oc-server3 ====
[[File:Codegenerationen.svg|thumb|OC code history]]
The up-to-date version is deployed to a single server which is connected to four domains ([https://www.opencaching.de www.opencaching.de], [https://www.opencaching.it www.opencaching.it], [http://www.opencachingspain.es www.opencachingspain.es], [http://www.opencaching.fr www.opencaching.fr]); that is, all those sites run on one server with the same code and database. This is currently the only server running up-to-date OCDE code, besides of test and development machines.

Other OC sites branched off the OCDE code (see graph), doing minor (CZ, NL) major (SE/NO) or huge (PL) modifications. Opencaching.NL later switched to OCPL code, and Opencaching.SE/NO was shut down in 2014 after plans for a merger to Opencaching.DE were discarded.

Both the OCDE and OCPL code branches use the same public API (called [[OKAPI]], see https://opencaching.pl/okapi/).

== The Opencaching-PL project (OCPL) ==
[[File:Logo OC.jpeg|thumb]]
Is the source code of Opencaching.PL site (and some others, set up on different domains). Opencaching.PL is one of the branches of the "OpenCaching National Sites" project.

==== Opencaching.PL branch - https://github.com/opencaching/opencaching-pl ====
[[File:Codegenerationen.svg|thumb|OC code history]]
* Branched from Opencaching.DE very long time ago, the two branches went their separate ways. If you're wondering which one to adopt, it is up to you to choose one.
* Deployed at multiple servers, each one of them connected to a separate domain.
* Some of these sites are always up-to-date (there's a postcommit script connected to the repository): https://opencaching.pl, https://www.opencaching.nl, https://www.opencaching.ro, https://www.opencache.uk, .https://www.opencaching.us... (this list is apt to grow)
* If other nodes would like to use it, we encourage you to try. However, it is NOT a travial task to add support for other languages into OCPL code. We may give you access to our repository if you'd like to internationalize it, but be warned - there's some work to be done here!

Both of the primary branches use the same public API (called [[OKAPI]], see https://opencaching.pl/okapi/).

Node IDs

[[File:Codegenerationen.svg|thumb|History of OC sites 2005-2016]]
== Opencaching Node ID ==
Node IDs are numbers used internally to uniquely identify each Opencaching node (website).

The purpose of these is to potentially allow information exchange between Opencaching nodes (like caches, users, logs, etc.). Another use is testing for developers in a virtual environment, without affecting the production website(s).

=== Node ID assignments ===
Each new website (node) must choose a unique, unassigned, NODE_ID.

Traditionally, NODE_IDs have been assigned by OCDE (Germany) management team.

 '''IMPORTANT!!! As of 2025-06-06 the matrix below describes the current known state of cache type mappings and foreseeable changes to come.'''
 ---

A geocache may be of several types. Each type incurrs specific characteristics and/or rules that may apply to searching, finding and logging that type of cache.

This document describes the existing cache types across Opencaching sites.

[[File:Codegenerationen.svg|thumb|History of OC sites 2005-2016]]
== Opencaching Node ID ==
Node IDs are numbers used internally to uniquely identify each Opencaching node (website).

The purpose of these is to potentially allow information exchange between Opencaching nodes (like caches, users, logs, etc.). Another use is testing for developers in a virtual environment, without affecting the production website(s).

=== Node ID assignments ===
Each new website (node) must choose a unique, unassigned, NODE_ID.

Traditionally, NODE_IDs have been assigned by OCDE (Germany) management team.

ID's based on current implementations.

'''''Should be merged in the future to a common set.'''''

==== Physical point ====
A physical container or object placed by the owner of the cache. It usually containes either coordinates to the next stage or clues on how to calculate them.

''It represents a stage for a cache that is not hidden at the published coordinates (like Multi-cache, Puzzle cache, Unknown cache).''

==== Virtual Point ====
A place where the geocacher must gather information in the field. Such information is to be used to calculate coordinates for the next stage. There is no physical object placed by the owner here.

''It represents a stage for a cache that is not hidden at the published coordinates (like Multi-cache, Puzzle cache, Unknown cache).''

==== Stage or reference point ====
A place where the geocacher must gather information in the field. Such information is to be used to calculate coordinates for the next stage. Such information may be from the surrounding environment or a physical object placed by the cache owner.

Equivalent to both "Physical point" and "Virtual point".

''It represents a stage for a cache that is not hidden at the published coordinates (like Multi-cache, Puzzle cache, Unknown cache).''

==== Final location ====
The actual place where the geocache container is hidden. The geocacher must solve intermediate stages or a puzzle or do some other type of research in order to obtain these coordinates.

Geocache owner may provide the possibility to check the solution for the final coordinates using the OpenChecker (OCPL feature)

==== Interesting place / POI ====
A place highlighted by the cache owner to enhance the experience of the geocaching searching for that particular cache.

==== Parking area ====
Parking place, recommended by the cache owner, where one can safely and legally leave the car, while geocaching for that particular cache.

==== Trailhead ====
Starting point of a path/trail/route towards the cache location. Useful for caches hidden in nature. This is the owner recommended way to the cache.

==== Path ====
One or more points along a path/trail/route towards the cache location. This is the owner recommended way to the cache.

First point on the path may be equivalent to "Trailhead".

Andrixnet: /* Log types matrix */

[[Category:Assigned numbers]]
[[Category:Cache]]
[[Category:Log]]
[[Category:Opencaching-DE]]
[[Category:Opencaching-PL]]
User interractions with a geocache are recorded in the cache log as a log entries.

Each log entry has a type, indicating an action or a status, in addition to the user supplied log entry text.

All log entries generate a notification email to the cache owner. Notification may be individual (per log) or digest.

Cache types

2025-06-06T20:47:25Z

Andrixnet: Updated cache type matrix. Added cache type icons.

[[index.php?title=Category:Assigned numbers]]
[[index.php?title=Category:Cache]]
[[index.php?title=Category:Cache type]]
[[index.php?title=Category:Opencaching-DE]]
[[index.php?title=Category:Opencaching-PL]]

=== NOTE: WORK IN PROGRESS. ===

 '''IMPORTANT!!! As of 2025-06-06 the matrix below describes the current known state of cache type mappings and foreseeable changes to come.'''
 ---

A geocache may be of several types. Each type incurrs specific characteristics and/or rules that may apply to searching, finding and logging that type of cache.

This document describes the existing cache types across Opencaching sites.
